Goals

Build project without warnings and not valid references

Expected Results

I would like to get rid of osx dependenceis and warning that you can find below. This is empty xamarin android navigation drawer template app with only realm nuget package added. Tried to solve Microsoft.Csharp issue but adding it as a nuget package didnt help.

Actual Results

Hi TRtomasz,

The ios references that show up under "References" are a known visualization bug in VS. Unfortunately we can't do much about that. Of course, because of this those references won't end up in the final apk. You can verify this last statement by yourself, just decompress the built apk and look into the lib folder, selecting any of the listed architectures. You should not see any of the dylib listed in VS.

Regarding the CSharp warning, we are going to look into removing that.
